Hello,

I've written a SOAP service using rpclib 2.6.1-beta1 (originally with
2.5.2, same issue) and I'm noticing that the Content-Length header is
never being set on the response from the application.

This is causing undesirable behavior when the application is mounted
with uWSGI in Apache (sometimes Apache is adding the
Transfer-Encoding: chunked header), so I'm attempting to figure out
how I can correct this so that the Content-Length is always being set.

Hi Kevin,

To set the Content-Length header, you have to have the whole response in memory. And since the beginning my aim has been to have rpclib work without having the whole message in memory in order to have the ability to return HUGE responses. (see the roadmap document) So I've intentionally suppressed the Content-Length header from responses. But I never thought this would have side effects. So here's a quick patch for that: https://github.com/plq/rpclib/commit/7092617b74bd6b3a2d57fd9833336b851208a672

Does it work for you?

I noticed that protocol/soap/mime.py has code to deal with
Content-Length, so to activate this I tried setting _mtom=True in my
method decorator,

<snip>

So… basically I'm guessing that I'm in uncharted territory here and
this code must not get used often.

You're right, There's been a long time since I touched the mtom code. I doubt it works at all.

Best,
Burak
